The FW Bell 5176 Gauss Meter represents the most recent design in magnetic measuring equipment. The success of this design is in thanks to digital signal processing technology, a world first for hand-held gauss meters, along with a dynamic probe correction which allows measurements from 0 - 20 kG with a basic accuracy of 1%. Applications with these CE compliant meters can range from rugged industrial settings to sensitive laboratory environments. The 5176 Gauss Meter includes a laboratory-friendly, 4" axial probe (SAH17-1904) and a domestic AC adapter.
The 5100 Series Gauss Meters include a built-in software that eliminates the need for complex calibration procedures. The 5100 Series allows the user to choose between Gauss, Tesla, or Ampere/meter readings and features a corrected analog output (±3V FS). This series also features an auto-zeroing function, auto range, relative mode, and min./max./peak hold. The custom-formatted LCD user prompts aid in ease of operation.
